I love your sig. Back when I was thinking of what to do for this month, I thought of using a spooking setting with flickering will-o-wisps. I couldn't make the image work. You followed a similar thought and not only made it work, but made it work extremely well. Good job!

Thanks. I actually had a really difficult time coming up with an idea initially, despite first thinking this should be an easier theme to work with. It was shear luck that I googled upon that image of the scary doll - and, yes, that "ghost girl" is really the picture of a doll; I just changed things to make her look like a ghost. *doll AND ghost...shivers...runs and turns on all her lights* >_<

I like your work on animated sigs, the work on statics it's good too.

Great job and keep improving!

"Cookies"

That's okay. There are so many people here that threads get buried fast.

It's all thanks to everyone's (including yourself) input and tips in the SOTM thread, and now this thread, that really help me a lot - got me even more hooked on sig making.

Thanks for the cookies! Woot, I get another box!!

I like the vers you submitted, when you told me via lj pm you were gonna tweak it I wondered how and I like the final cut, the lights flicker just enough to not take away from the ghost girl. Sold entry.

Voting this month is gonna be hard....

LOL. I forgave Evil Rick, so he won't be going into my cauldron this year.

I didn't even realize I got an extra box until I read your post. YES! Finally, haha.

Yeah, it was an idea that KiNA first suggested, but it was such a pain to have to play with 6 different files with small itty bitty slices of each torch. >_< But the good side is that I learned how to animate things at different speeds. 8Db It was the one thing that I kept wondering about when I saw Endrance's sig with the crows flapping differently.

I know, isn't it? It's always hard, since I usually have 4 or 5 sigs that I really like.

With very little free time, I threw something quick together for this month's SOTM but, since I'm not sure whether I'll have the time to enter it or not, I decided to post this piece here. C&C would be appreciated (from anyone that drops by my thread ).

...and my most recent icons (snuck in some time to make icons...and finally posting them here ).

Spoiler for icons:

...and I threw this sig together really, really quick. Excuse the poor quality since all I could get my hands on was a poor quality trailer.

I think you should your SOTM even if you enter it as is. I like it. I'm not sure if I'm entering or not. Been busy & have more busy yet to come. I may work up some so-so thing just to keep up with the contest. Your entry looks much better than I can imagine anything I would come up with. Besides, how much time would it take to create an SOTM post with the phrase FINAL ENTRY and this current picture? Not much, I'd think.

If you feel like you have time to play with the pic, the one change I would recommend would be to tone down the white highlights. I wouldn't eliminate them, just reduce their intensity. They're a little too overwhelming for the picture as whole at their current level.

It's not so much the actual posting part per se, it's whether I feel the sig is worthy enough to be entered at all. I don't want to do what I did last time, and that was to throw something quick (and crappy) together and call it an entry.

You mean the white aura around the girls? Okay, I'll do that when I get the time later. It's sometimes hard to judge things on my monitor because everything is so much smaller. ):

EDIT: Okay, so I decided to enter this sig for this month's SOTM anyway. Made the suggested change.

So I managed to squeeze in an entry for December's SOTM. First time I went straight to a submission without asking for critiques but that is because I had less than 24 hours left and no time to make any changes anyway. orz Well, hope this turned out okay.

Thanks for all the wonderful b-day wishes! Would you believe it was your posts that reminded me it was my birthday that day? Sadly, it's true. Some can attest on how forgetful I can be.

Anyway, finally got a break from work so...threw some stuff together for fun.

Spoiler for sigs:

I was playing around with "lighting" for this sig. Still haven't gotten it quite right. I was going to add some text to the lower left corner but couldn't come up with anything good. So it's just blank there.

Spoiler for icons:

Some random icons I made - some were made as gifts to friends on livejournal. They're very basic works. Haven't gotten the time to be more elaborate with these.
